Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Geng Shuang's Regular Press Conference on June14, 2018

一、经中阿双方共同商定，中国—阿拉伯国家合作论坛第八届部长级会议将于7月10日在北京举行。王毅国务委员兼外交部长和阿拉伯国家的外长或代表及阿盟秘书长将出席会议。 

　　本届部长会将就进一步巩固中阿传统友好，推进“一带一路”建设，共同推动建设新型国际关系和构建人类命运共同体，以及加强中阿合作论坛机制建设和其他双方共同关心的国际、地区问题进行全面、深入的讨论。 

　　二、应国务委员兼外交部长王毅邀请，丹麦王国外交大臣安诺斯·萨穆埃尔森将于6月20日至22日对中国进行正式访问。 

As agreed by China and the Arab states, the 8th Ministerial Meeting of China-Arab States Cooperation Forum will be held on July 10 in Beijing. State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi, foreign ministers or representatives from the Arab states and Secretary-General of the  League of Arab States will attend the meeting.   

At the meeting, the relevant parties will have comprehensive and in-depth discussions on further consolidating the traditional friendship between China and the Arab states, advancing the Belt and Road Initiative, jointly building a new type of international relations and forging a community with a shared future for mankind, enhancing the mechanism building of the China-Arab States Cooperation Forum and other international and regional issues of common interest. 

At the invitation of State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi, Minister of Foreign Affairs Anders Samuelsen of the Kingdom of Denmark will pay an official visit to China from June 20 to 22. 

　　萨穆埃尔森外交大臣访华期间，中共中央政治局委员、中央外事工作委员会办公室主任杨洁篪，国务委员兼外交部长王毅将分别同其举行会见、会谈，就双边关系和共同关心的问题交换意见。除北京外，萨穆埃尔森还将赴上海访问。 

　　丹麦是最早同中国建交的西方国家之一，今年是中丹建立全面战略伙伴关系十周年。相信萨穆埃尔森外交大臣此次访华将有助于增进两国政治互信，拓展双方各领域务实合作，推动中丹关系迈上新的台阶。 

During this visit, Yang Jiechi, member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee and Director of the Office of the Foreign Affairs Commission of the CPC Central Committee will meet with Minister of Foreign Affairs Anders Samuelsen and State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi will hold talks with him, during which they will exchange views on bilateral relations and issues of mutual interest. Besides Beijing, Minister Samuelsen will travel to Shanghai. 

Denmark is one of the first western countries to establish diplomatic ties with China. This year marks the 10th anniversary of the China-Denmark comprehensive strategic partnership. We believe that Minister of Foreign Affairs Anders Samuelsen's visit to China will help step up political mutual trust, expand our practical cooperation across the board and elevate China-Denmark relations to a new level.
